No reasonably orthodox Christian believes in Aphrodite or the rest of the Olympian deities, or in Ganesh the Elephant God or the rest of the Hindu pantheon, or in the Japanese emperor, and so endlessly on.. anyone who sincerely believes in such deities is [considered] deluded and blasphemously in pursuit of “false gods”. The atheist adds just one more deity to the list of false gods..
